Fs: Michelin 270Mm X 650Mm X 18" Race Slicks. Much Faster Than Semi Slicks


Recommended Posts

Much faster then semi Slicks

I have 6 of these tyres in total in this size for sale. $150 each with plenty of race miles left in them.

2x in the softest compound S7 and 4x in the better race compound S8

The S7's are good for a few laps for a really fast time and are preferred by Time Attack cars but are not as consistent all day as the S8 compounds

The S8's do not go off and are preferred by most racers as they are consistent until completely worn out.

I drove a Commodore once at Eastern Creek til the canvas was exposed and the 8's were good up til that last lap. Amazing tyres.

Michelin recommend fitting to 10" to 11.5" rims but I know they work fine on 9" upwards to 11.5"

Always stored indoors (except on occasions when car is outside of course)

$660 each new. http://europeantechnique.com.au/michelin/Tyres/slick%20wet.htm

Located NW Sydney for pick up or I will ship anywhere via TNT

Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney $12.50 per tyre

PM me your email address and I will send you photos with tread depths marked. Generally 2 to 3mm plus across the tread so very usable tyres

For those wondering about how to compare the sizes of these slicks to street tyres, slicks are measured very simply

Michelin measure how wide it is = 270mm of tread width

Then they measure how high the whole tyre is = 650mm high

To compare them to your street tyres get a tape measure on your tyres and see how they compare.

If yours are 245 wide street tyres actually measure them as some 245s are less then 245mm and some more than 245mm

Then estimate if there is space for these slicks so they do not hit your guards or suspension

It is actually simpler than the street aspect ratio measurng system once you get your head around it

    • Your both right, it may hold a bit longer then.  Soon I need to change the synchros, should I fit the billet plate while I'm at it? Or just a waste of money?
    • Some of the east coast US Stagea got together this past weekend at Lime Rock Park in CT for Grid Life Circuit Legends. This is probably my favorite pic of the shoot with @Morgan.Mundahl on IG. Hope we get more stags out next year! i think I spotted 5 other than my own at the event. 
    • Hi Cody, If you are looking for a simple "bolt in bolt out" solution, I may be able to help via trade. I'm swapping my auto RS4V from stock subframe to a reinforced S14 Rear subframe specifically for track duty. I was looking into different rear core options while the car was in air and I found your thread.   My VLSD rear is freshly changed fluid/inspected. I will say even with Redline diff fluid it is still not as aggressive as I would like with the "sports" viscous core, and coming from a heavily modded evo with full drivetrain I'm looking for a bit more rotation with the throttle.  I second this, the polyurethane bushings are pretty aggressive as is.  If you're interested in the trade, I am driving out to Chicago in September for a time attack event. I could swing by and make the trade somewhere Sept 12-13th or 15-16th if you are interested and you have not already solved this issue yourself. 
    • No, the panel filter is the standard dry one. Yes, I did clean the AFM with electrical contact cleaner.
